What should I do if my package arrives damaged?

Full details: Return & Refund Policy.
When will I receive my refund?
After we receive and inspect the return (typically 3–5 business days), refunds are processed within 7–14 business days. You will receive an email confirmation once the refund is initiated. Allow an extra 3–10 business days for the funds to appear, depending on your bank.
Can I swap an item for a different style?
Yes. Return the original piece and place a new order for the style you prefer. Write to support@tricolordeer.com so we can start the return process and issue an RMA number.
A part was missing from my package — what next?
Contact us right away with your order number and photos. We will send the missing component at no charge. For multi-part fixtures, please check every layer of packaging — hardware is sometimes packed separately inside the box.
04 · PRODUCT INFORMATION
What materials go into your lighting?
Natural stone: Alabaster, travertine, marble — each piece carries unique natural veining.
Metals: Solid brass, antique brass, black iron, brushed nickel.
Glass: Handblown, Italian glass, smoked and clear finishes.
Natural materials: Solid walnut and oak, bamboo, rattan, mulberry silk.
Other: High-grade ceramic, plaster, resin, and alabaster composites.
Are your fixtures compatible with LED bulbs?
Yes. Nearly all of our pieces work with LED bulbs. We recommend LEDs for efficiency and longer life. Compatible bulb types and wattages are listed on each product page.
Can the lights be dimmed?
Many fixtures support dimming when paired with a compatible dimmer switch and dimmable LED bulbs. Dimmability is indicated on the product page. Reach out before ordering if you are unsure about your electrical setup.
Are bulbs included with the fixture?
Most designs ship without bulbs unless the product page states otherwise. Recommended bulb types and specifications are always shown in the product details.
Do your products work with US 110V systems?
Yes. All pieces listed on tricolordeer.com are configured for US standard voltage (110V–120V, 60Hz) unless noted otherwise. Contact us for guidance on international voltage requirements.
05 · INSTALLATION & SETUP
How straightforward is installation?
Our fixtures are designed for standard mounting. Plug-in styles can usually be installed without a professional. For hardwired pieces — chandeliers, ceiling lights, and hardwired wall sconces — we strongly recommend a licensed electrician to ensure safety文 compliance.
Are installation instructions provided?
Yes. Each fixture includes printed instructions. Additional guidance on sizing, mounting heights, and wiring is available in our Lighting Size & Installation Guide.
How do I choose the right size for my room?
Dining table: Chandelier diameter about one-half to two-thirds the table width.
Entryway: Add room length + width in feet; the sum in inches is a good starting diameter for a chandelier.
Height: Pendant bottoms roughly 7 ft from the floor in living areas; 30–36 inches above a dining table surface.
See our full Sizing Guide for room-by-room recommendations.
Can the cord or chain be shortened?
Most pendants and chandeliers include adjustable cord or chain lengths that can be trimmed during installation. The maximum included length is listed in each product's specifications. Write to us if you need a custom length.
06 · CUSTOMIZATION & TRADE
Can I request a custom size or finish?
Yes. Because we operate our own manufacturing, we can accommodate extended cord lengths, custom canopy sizes, specific finishes, and fully bespoke designs for hospitality and commercial projects. Contact customer service to confirm the production schedule for your design.
Reach out via our Contact page to discuss your requirements.
Is there a Trade Program for designers and architects?
Yes. Our Trade Program welcomes interior designers, architects, hospitality developers, and bulk purchasers. Benefits include trade pricing and dedicated account support.
Apply on our Trade Account page.
Do you offer 3D visualization?
Yes. We provide complimentary 3D renderings so you can preview how a fixture will look in your space before purchasing. Email us your room dimensions, ceiling height, and the piece(s) you are considering. Turnaround is usually 3–5 business days.
